Virginie Collombier فرجينيه كلومبية

I have been a Research Fellow at the European University Institute of Florence, Italy (EUI) since September 2013. My main research interests are in social and political dynamics in Libya, with a focus on processes of mediation and reconciliation; the political economy of conflicts; security issues.

Prior to this, my main research focus has been on Egyptian politics and transformations within the regime before and after the 2011 revolution. I also have significant experience as an independent consultant and an analyst on North Africa and the Middle East with European governmental bodies and international organizations.
